Example of being cheated by a roommate with an American

The apartment fee was paid to the American roommate.　The payment was never received by the apartment owner. Both names of the apartment were taken to court for eviction

Deposit for apartment $ Paid 400 but it was fraudulent.　 $ 400 deposit is not a common practice

When I came back from Japan, the apartment was locked and I could not enter. Due to forced eviction, my American roommate moved out and the Japanese took my stuff in the presence of the manager.

I think it is possible on a budget. However, it is tough for an international student with no credit history to rent an apartment in his/her own name.
If you negotiate directly with the landlord, such as paying a larger deposit or paying several months rent in advance, you may be able to get an exception.

My flight arrives in Los Angeles before 8:00 a.m., and I would like to take a short nap after arrival because of the tight schedule of my trip from Japan.

If you know of any places around LAX where I can take a nap, please let me know.
Can I stay at a motel in the morning if it is available? ？

Worst case scenario, I would like to rent a car and park it in a store parking lot and take a nap.
I am going to Los Angeles for the first time in a long time, so I am a little worried about some things.

・ You are a small person to say that what you don't know is a lie or a delusion.

Even in first class, until a few years ago, there were seats that were only slanted in some aircraft, but now they are completely full-flat and semi-private except for takeoff and landing, which is very comfortable. I hope one day I can get on it instead of fantasizing about it.

When I fly internationally, I go to the hotel as soon as I arrive, check my luggage first, and in some cases take a short rest, but that's something ？.

Expatriate wives work locally

Question
#1
  • purifire

  • 2022/11/09 11:35

I am an expat wife living in LA as an accompanying family member of an expatriate (E2 visa).

I am considering working there, but I am in the process of negotiating with my husband's company to get permission.

The company is concerned that since they are responsible for the expatriate's taxes, there will be complications with tax laws and
there is no precedent for this and it will be extra work for the HR department.

How exactly would there be complications in tax law if an expatriate wife works?
(tax returns are desired to be combined for husband and wife)

Also, how will the HR department's workload increase?

I am in my 20s and have no children, so I want to continue my career,
I want to earn money to send back to my parents living in Japan
are my reasons for wanting to work locally.

However, since I am negotiating with my husband's company, I would like to gather as much information as possible and negotiate carefully.

If you have had similar experiences or have any information, please share.

You are absolutely right and the company will not allow it.

The expatriates must be earning enough for their entire families to live here, and I think the law does not allow them to earn income from other sources.

I understand that you want to "do something" because your husband comes home late every day, but regular work would not be possible. How about doing some volunteer work? How about helping out at a local senior center for elderly people who only speak English? Women in their prime would be very welcome. There is some physical labor such as pushing wheelchairs, but if you can speak, read, and write English, there should be some simple office work as well.

I heard that E2S visa holders don't need to apply for a work permit anymore, so they can work as they like
If that's the case, I don't think you need to get permission from your husband's company In US, you can ask a tax accountant to file your tax return by yourself with the documents you get from your company, so your wife's company won't be bothered by your wife's income.
If the company is going to file the tax return for the husband, the wife can do it with her own income, not with the husband's. ？
Either way, I don't think it would be a problem for the husband's company
I heard this from a friend.
Visa related issues change frequently, so it would be better to ask the lawyer who did your husband's visa
As usual, the germs are always talking about old shit as if it's common knowledge, and it pisses me off. Don't rely on this old man's story.

Little Tokyo Village parking lot clearing machine

Question
#1
  • 9ish
  • mail
  • 2022/10/13 22:47

Last month, I used the Little Tokyo Village parking lot （ the one with the entrance facing San Pedro ）.
I was told that I would receive 4 validations from the bank and that they would be valid all day, but after running a few errands, I returned to my car and headed for the exit in probably less than 2 hours.

The problem is this exit checkout machine.

First, it asked me to put in a validation, so I did. It didn't look like a high-tech machine that would allow me to put several tickets on top of each other, so I put in only one of the four tickets.
Next, it asks me to put in a ticket. I did. I did so ＄ It displayed 9 payments.
There is no button to cancel and no response when I press the button to call an attendant.
In the meantime, the ticket was reversed and returned, but one validation was taken away.
I called the number printed on the ticket and was told to move to the next lane, which was very difficult for me because it was narrow, curved, and uphill. I was finally released after having that thing lifted.

Now, this is a long explanation, but what is the correct way to pay if there are multiple validation cards in the machine here ？

I vaguely remember many years ago, when I tried to pay in advance at the machine on the first floor, the machine was also I remember that the machine was very difficult to use and it was not easy to use. I had assumed that the pre-payment system itself no longer existed, since the machine was no longer there. I later found out that the machine is still in another location.

Please let me know if you know how to use the multiple validation system.
Thank you very much.
